Chapter 17: Traveling to and from the City (5)
You Xing didn't intend to accuse Han Gang's character, he just wanted to talk about his intelligence and the city government. But seeing that the two classmates were misunderstood, it was inconvenient to justify.
"With Han Gang presiding, even if Zhang Hengqu Immortal goes, Qi Science is also becoming more and more prosperous, and after he returns to Beijing, even if there is a delay in official business, he will definitely be able to create something." Xie Liangzuo diverted the topic and sighed: "The number of opponents is increasing day by day, and time is running out." ”
Yang Shi didn't worry at all: "Qi Xue is actually too busy to take care of himself. The theory of heaven and man is like a chasm, and Han Yukun can't cross it or make it up. In fact, it is the lamp mountain outside the Xuande Gate of the Shangyuan Festival, which looks bright and dazzling, but in fact, it is made of bamboo skin tissue paper, which is broken when poked and burned. If it weren't for this, how would Uncle Lu and Uncle have switched here?
In Yang Shi's opinion, don't look at the huge pressure that Qi Science has brought to other schools now, but as far as the future development is concerned, the enemy of Qi Science is itself. Without a complete and self-consistent system, it is difficult for any school of thought to pass on and develop – especially when there are so many competitors.
The biggest problem with qi science is that the separation between nature and heaven and man is extremely serious. Acknowledging that the Son of Heaven is ordained by Heaven is the point of view expounded in the "Ximing" of Qi Science, but this point is absolutely impossible to prove from Zhang Zai's Qi Yuan Theory, and Han Gang's advocacy of the natural way makes this rift deeper and bigger.
Han Gang avoided this, but how long could he hide? This is a big joint, which cannot be avoided or let go. Either the Son of Heaven is no longer under the command of Heaven, or Han Gang has to admit that his natural way is wrong. ”
You Xing felt that things were not so simple, and with Han Gang's mental skills and intelligence, it was impossible to sit back and watch such a huge flaw not to make up for it. What's more, Zhang Zai has many people, and it is impossible to leave it alone.
Cheng Men calls himself Taoism, and the number one enemy at the moment is Xinxue, which controls the rank of the scholars, but in the long run, it must be Qixue. Han Gang has a long-term mind, and when he ascends to the stage in the future, he will naturally try his best to make Qi Science a textbook for the students taught in Guozijian Middle School, so that it can become a prominent study in the world.
It's like this clairvoyant mirror in your hand. Han Gang has always had only a few words about astronomical stars, and at most he only mentioned that the sun, moon and stars are born of qi. However, the appearance of the clairvoyant mirror allows people to observe the sky and have a deeper understanding of the sun, moon and stars.
He created the two lenses that make up the microscope and the clairneye, and he also clarified the principle. Knowing the reason, so there are microscopes and clairvoyants.
It is said that the metaphysical is the way, and the metaphysical is the instrument.
According to the theory of qi, the principle of refracting light through a lens is the metaphysical Tao, which is the principle of induction from the physical objects in the world, and the clairvoyant mirror and microscope are the result of this principle being fed back to the world, and they are metaphysical instruments.
The Tao and the instrument are one, and if we only seek the metaphysical, it is the rootless wood and the sourceless water, and it is just empty talk. And if you only pay attention to the metaphysical instrument, and do not pay attention to the truth in it, you are just a mediocre man.
Qixue, or Han Gang, has always advocated the use of the world, the use of the Ming body, and the application of learning, and different words have similar meanings. All doctrine and learning must be able to be applied in practice. Adhering to the concept of Mr. Anding Hu Ming, in Hengqu Academy, many disciples have to study both the scriptures and the righteousness and the management of affairs, water conservancy, the art of war, money and food, and the name of punishment.
The interpretation of the phrase is a key point in qi science.
However, Cheng Men could not agree with this interpretation at all. Yang Shidao: "As Uncle Lu said, Han Gang still doesn't learn correctly after all, and all the achievements are trivial matters, and you must know that life is the foundation." ”
"But the closer it is, the more it can lead people to learn. Microscopes and clairvoyants have become popular among the children of officials and eunuchs in Luoyang City. Xie Liangzuo sighed, "There are thousands of people in Xiariba, thousands of peacemakers, spring and snow, and dozens of peacemakers. ”
"Look up to the high, drill the strong, look ahead, and ignore the back. The study of the sage, Yan Zi [Yan Hui] also feels difficult. Shallow and easy to learn, that's less positive. ”
After all, but in fact, everyone in the Cheng Sect could feel the tremendous pressure from Han Gang. Han Gang's prestige comes from the accumulation of merits, and his prestige comes from the favor received by a famous person. The greater the fame, the heavier the weight of his words, and the more people are willing to learn the ideas he advocates.
The Mongolian book compiled by Han Gang has begun to be popularized in Mongolian studies in Guanzhong. There are three-character scriptures that teach people to read and write, arithmetic that counts, and nature that tells about all things in heaven and earth, and all of them are the shadow of qi from head to toe. By the time these elementary school students grow up, how many of them will be able to accept the views of other schools?
Relying on Wang Anshi's authority, Xinxue became the prominent school advocated by the imperial court. Even if other schools of thought want to be admitted to the Jinshi, they must learn the new meaning of the Three Classics. However, the current status of Xinxue still depends on the status of the new party, and when the government is no longer controlled by the new party, Xinxue will of course be cut off.
And Qi science, with the support of Han Gang, and the continuous cultivation of literacy in Chinese and Mongolian studies, plus the scholars who came out of Hengqu Academy, because of the material for governing things, as long as the luck is not bad, after entering the official, it will definitely be more important than the officials who only know the scriptures and poetry.
If you want to compete with Qi, you have to do it as soon as possible. Otherwise, when Qi Science becomes more popular, it will become the same as today's New School, suppressing all schools. Moreover, once the practice of Qi Science is now deeply rooted, once it is entrenched, it will be difficult to shake.
"Don't worry." Xie Liangzuo walked to You Xing's side, "Not to mention that Qi Xue is so powerful, it will definitely provoke the New Party to regard it as a thorn in the side." Even if I only rely on my Chengmen lineage, I will definitely be able to get back a big victory in the future. ”
……………………
Summer in Jiangning Mansion has always been known for its heat, but there is a gentle mountain breeze on the edge of Zhongshan outside the city, which is not so unbearable.
Wang Anshi sat on a bluestone on the side of the road, a chessboard in front of him, a Taoist priest sat opposite, two thin old donkeys gnawed grass beside him, and an old acacia was shady, shielding him and his opponent in chess from the hot sun.
The mountain breeze came slowly, sweeping away the scorching heat. Wang Anshi was dressed in a Taoist robe, and there was an old Taoist on the opposite side, both of them were wooden hairpins and mango shoes, and there were no ornaments on their bodies, and they looked like two ordinary Taoists - it should be said that they were poor Taoists - playing chess on the side of the road.
The road under the mountain forest is often passed by pedestrians, and when they pass by, they only glance at each other, and no one notices that there is a person sitting on the stone by the roadside, who has been in charge of the affairs of the world and has a powerful name.
"Why didn't you see your husband come out a few days ago? But are you sick? Uncle Li dropped a piece on the chessboard and asked casually.
Wang Anshi focused on the black and white on the chessboard, and replied casually: "I'm not sick, I'm just trapped in the paper." ”
Uncle Li raised his head: "Is it the book that Xianggong has been writing in the past few years?" Wang Anshi has been pondering the meaning of exegesis in recent years, which Uncle Li has more or less heard when he chatted with him when he played chess.
"It has been named "Words Say". Wang Anshi nodded, and dropped a son casually.
In fact, the title of the book "Words Say" was determined by Wang Anshi very early, born from "Shuo Wen Jie Zi", when communicating with relatives and friends, because the book has not yet been written, but the title of the book is not publicly attached. According to the title of the book, although it is a dewording, the content is mostly exegesis, and it also discusses phonology, but the three categories of text, phonology, and exegesis in Confucian primary schools are all occupied. However, the primary school is one, and both are the foundation of scripture, and when one of them is mentioned, the other two are inevitably brought out.
As early as when Yingzong was still in power, Wang Anshi began to write the book, and the first draft was not available until a year ago. He copied the first draft and sent it to a few relatives and friends with deep skills, so that they could taste and correct it. Other people's replies all said yes, but the second son-in-law was the most polite, and directly said that he was carving a boat and asking for a sword. But thanks to Han Gang's good son-in-law, Wang Anshi also made some changes to several unsatisfactory places in "Zishuo". This time, as soon as "Words and Words" came out, the foundation of Xinxue was stabilized.
Uncle Li arched his hand when he heard this, "Oh! That's a great way to congratulate! Xianggong is the best in the world. As soon as "Words and Words" came out, the Confucian biography should give up a head. ”
"Do you want to compete with the sages? It's just to get to the bottom of it. Wang Anshi said, "The first king suffered from the world and the later generations lost his law, so he was three years old together." The same, so a moral also. ”
Uncle Li can be chess friends with Wang Anshi, and his knowledge is not bad. Hearing the three words 'one morality' that implied murder, there was a golden iron horse in front of him, and there seemed to be drums and horns in his ears. This book is really to suppress a dry Confucian sect.
Wang Anshi and Uncle Li were chatting and playing chess, and the sun shifted little by little in the sky and gradually fell on Wang Anshi.
Seeing that most of Wang Anshi's body was shrouded in the still blazing sun, and his little companion, who was only in his early teens, was squatting on the ground to watch the ants, Uncle Li coughed and proposed, "Xianggong, it's better to change places." ”
Wang Anshi sat on the bluestone, motionless like a mountain, and didn't care, "Let him go, reincarnate as a cow in the next life, and he must plow the fields in the sun." When he saw Uncle Li, he hesitated a little and urged, "Come down, don't delay, the old man is going to win this game." ”
The bamboo forest rustled, and a gust of wind blew away the heat wave around him from the forest, and Su Yu listened to the natural sound coming from the forest, and his heart was full of peace and joy.
In the corner of the academy, elementary school students from the town near the left side of the academy were chanting the three-character scripture aloud. The childish voice makes people smile when they hear it.
In Guanzhong, most of the Mongolian schools began to use the Three Character Classics and Han Gang's arithmetic and natural books to teach students. With 100,000 Mengtong, even if the talent is one in a hundred, it is calculated in thousands - this is the future of Qi Science.
For Han Gang's plan, Su Yu admired it very much. Willing to take the time to plant the roots, looking at the decades and decades later, such patience rarely appears in young people. Older people have patience but lack time. And Han Gang, there is no shortage of time, patience and talent, and in the future, he will inevitably be a subject of light and atmosphere.
At the same time, in the scorching heat, a convoy of carriages and horses arrived at the west gate of Tokyo City.
Wearing a hat to shade the sun and a wide robe suitable for heat dissipation, Han Gang looked up at the towering city walls, and after a year, he saw the walls of Tokyo City again, but his previous state of mind did not change. Although there is no barbarian iron horse here, it is also a place to use.
The daughter of the Han Gang family poked her head out of the carriage excitedly: "Daddy, daddy, have you arrived in the capital?" ”
"yes." Han Gang flicked his daughter's small brain with his fingers, "It's time to the capital." ”
"Daddy bullies." Jin Niang covered her head and pouted with tears in her eyes and sat back in the carriage.
Amused by his daughter's coquettishness, Han Gang looked back at the wide and straight avenue behind the deep doorway, and said softly, "I'm back again." ”
